OverviewAI-generated summary

Angel Lopez Candales' research investigates various aspects of cardiovascular disease, with a recent focus on its diagnosis, management, and treatment, particularly within underserved populations. His work includes retrospective analyses of no-show rates in cardiology clinics during the COVID-19 pandemic and a comprehensive analysis of prescription trends for Sacubitril/Valsartan and Sodium-Glucose Transporter 2 Inhibitors (SGLT2i) at a safety-net hospital. Candales has also explored the physiological potentials of SGLT2 inhibitors in cardiovascular and chronic kidney diseases, and examined relationships between left ventricular function metrics, such as ejection fraction and longitudinal mitral annular motion. His publications also address specific clinical presentations, including recurrent prosthetic valve endocarditis and reductions in left ventricular global longitudinal strain in multiple myeloma patients. Candales has a h-index of 2 and has authored 17 publications.
